Northern Dene Astronomical and Sky-Related Knowledge, Central Western Alaska to Great Slave Lake N.W.T. (Northwest Territories of Canada), (2018-2022).
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This data set includes primary materials collected and compiled by Chris M. Cannon between 2018-2022 as part of his NSF (National Science Foundation) supported doctoral dissertation research on Northern Dene (Athabascan) astronomical and sky-related knowledge. Additional data pertaining to this research that Cannon collected before 2018 is also archived with this data set. In total, this comparative and multi-sited anthropological study spans 11 years and includes contributions from Northern Dene Elders, speakers, and tradition bearers from 12 ethnolinguistic groups across 32 communities between central-western Alaska and the eastern end of Great Slave Lake, N.W.T. (Northwest Territories of Canada). These data include audio recordings (interviews, conversations, stories, texts, linguistic elicitation), transcribed and translated texts and stories, maps, star charts, wordlists, video recordings, photos, fieldnotes, published papers, and Cannon's PhD dissertation. Publications relating to this research acknowledge the financial support of NSF and variety of other institutions, First Nations, and Tribes.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; both teacher heads agree on what is shown here.
